That this House congratulates the Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) on reaching its 100th birthday; acknowledges the superb seamanship involved in RFA operations, in particular in manoeuvring vessels at close proximity in heavy seas with poor visibility; remembers the sacrifices made by its personnel in the defence of the United Kingdom; and welcomes the development of the RFA as a complex multi-purpose flotilla that is an integral part of the UK's defence capability providing replenishment, training and forward repair capabilities for the Royal Navy and secure sea-borne logistic support for all three services.
